Clicgear Folding Golf Cart
Date Published: 11/29/07
Clicgear has taken the best elements in walking golfbag-cart design and incorporated them into its Folding Golf Cart. This exceptional unit even includes several innovations that eliminate common complaints golfers have about golfbag push carts.
First and foremost, a walking golfbag cart should be easy to push. The Folding Golf Cart addresses that admirably, as its three wheels glide effortlessly across all types of terrain. You can push it or pull it, and you can even balance the unit on its two rear wheels when maneuvering a turn.
This golfbag cart is very sturdy and well balanced. The tripod design sets the frame on a convenient angle, and the adjustable bag straps support a wide variety of golf bags, be they compact or oversize.
One of the best features (and there are many) is the positive lock brake. An easy-to-operate pull-and-lock lever by the Folding Golf Cart's handle activates the brake, which keeps the front wheel in a constant position so the cart stays parked. Since the rear wheels still turn freely, you can tilt the cart onto the back wheels and move it even while the brake is on. This is helpful if you just need to move the cart out of the way and don't want to bother unsetting and resetting the brake.
Obviously, the Folding Golf Cart's premier feature is its amazing foldability. This full-size cart has a unique slide-to-close design so all the components flip, turn and fold together into the smallest possible configuration. The folded cart measures 24 inches tall, 15 inches deep and 13 inches wide, which is smaller than most golf bags.
The Folding Golf Cart is ridiculously easy to fold and unfold. The steps are not intuitive, but the instructions are clear and straightforward. Once you get the hang of it, it's quite simple to break down or expand the unit in less than a minute. In addition, the Folding Golf Cart comes completely assembled aside from a few optional accessories, so there's no need to worry about putting it together properly.
Everything on the Folding Golf Cart is engineered for optimum efficiency and performance. The frame is made from aircraft-grade aluminum tubing and painted to a glossy finish in any of five colors: black, blue, orange, silver and white. The handle has a non-slip foam grip, and a built-in accessory mount lets you attach an umbrella holder to keep your clubs dry on rainy days.
Other handy features include a large handle-mounted storage tray for holding your score card and pencil, plus several balls, your keys, a cell phone, wallet and more, a Velcro towel hook, which can also hold your glove while you are putting, a folding beverage holder and easy-rolling 12-inch pneumatic tires. If the air pressure in the tires gets low, simply re-inflate them with the included hand pump.
If you've been unsatisfied with the selection of golfbag carts available out there, consider your search to be over. The Clicgear Folding Golf Cart is as good as it gets.
Pros: Easily folds to an ultra-compact size, locking hand brake, rolls easily over all types of terrain, big storage tray for valuables
